Ep 93. How I Healed From Interstitial Cystitis and OAB: My FULL Story


Listen Later

For the first time, I’m walking you through my full journey with interstitial cystitis (IC) and overactive bladder (OAB). From painful peeing in childhood to my first UTI during high school soccer, to years of restrictive diets, unhelpful doctors, anxiety, surgery complications, and the constant feeling that I was missing something.

Spoiler: I was.

In this episode, I share what finally helped after 29 years of living with chronic bladder symptoms. We cover the nervous system, the pelvic floor, and the emotional toll of being dismissed over and over. This story isn’t just about pain—it's about resilience, clarity, and what healing actually looked like for me.

Whether you’re newly diagnosed or years into this journey, this episode is for anyone who’s ever felt overwhelmed, isolated, or like they’ve “tried everything” with no relief.

In the episode, I discuss:• The pelvic floor truth no one’s explaining but absolutely should• How your nervous system could be the missing piece in your healing• Why community support isn’t just helpful, it’s essential• How I finally found real relief (and why it had nothing to do with cutting more foods or adding another supplement)• How I found symptom relief without meds or extreme food rules

You are not broken. There is another way, and I hope this story gives you a glimpse of it.
